While this country isn't perfect (none are!), we are so lucky to be here.  We have universal healthcare, education, a constitution that protects human rights, and a democracy.  We should be thankful for what we have, while working to improve the areas where we fall short.

I am so grateful that I was able to stay employed throughout the pandemic. Working from home has been different (and sometimes challenging), but I have been working and earning when so many lost their jobs.

Yes, we annoy each other and I sometimes want to bang my head off of things when I deal with them but I am grateful that at the end of the day I know my family is here for me and I am there for them.

I have been very grateful for the great outdoors this winter! You can find me hiking in the forest, running in the snow, and going to as many outdoor areas as possible. :)

Honestly, I have been struggling WELL before the pandemic, and as 2021 progressed on, it felt like I was losing EVERYTHING, friends, family, health, motivation, my will to live and so much more...the one thing that has always always ALWAYS grounded me was God and His way because it is honestly the only reason I am choosing to continue to be alive and better myself as a Muslim and a Human on this planet with this temporary life we all have. Even though it's SO difficult and painful to carry on living, I still feel the need to fight on for the sake of Allah and everything that Islam is made up and stands for, because inshallah it will pay off and I will be truly happy and at peace in Jannah. Alhamdulilah. May Allah SWT make it easy for all of us and allow us to permanently reside in the highest places of Firdous after this challenging and difficult test of life (AMEEN)

I am grateful for my husband of 21 years .... he has been my rock, my therapist, my voice of reason, and my soft place when I've needed it the most.   It's been a super hard 2 years and I wouldn't have made it through without him.

Need to focus past this year. Think it is important to be as realistic as possible. Arrived at this conclusion because the Yoga With Adriene 30 day journey's theme is 'MOVE' . We were asked "What do we wish to move towards?"
